Research shows that electric toothbrushes are better at removing dental plaque and reducing gingivitis than manual brushes, but there are other factors at play.

Whether oscillating and rotating to sweep away debris or using sonic vibrations to get the job done, electric toothbrushes are better atthat after using an electric toothbrush for three months, there was a 21 percent reduction in plaque, which can cause gingivitis and tooth decay. And there was an 11 percent reduction in gingivitis, which, left untreated, can lead to more advanced, a spokesman for the American Dental Association.

“It doesn’t require mastery” of the preferred manual brush technique, said Hewlett, a professor and an associate dean at the School of Dentistry at the University of California at Los Angeles. The main downside is the price tag. Depending on the type, electric toothbrushes can range from about $30 to about $200, compared with only a few dollars for a manual toothbrush.Experts emphasized that people should speak with their oral health-care provider about which toothbrush is best for them and, most importantly, to learn proper brushing techniques.Choose a soft-bristled brush. Not only is it gentler on the gums, but it also splays across the tooth for better coverage.

Start at one corner with the upper teeth and use this technique to brush from one side to the other across the front of the teeth before moving to the backside and the biting surface. Then move to the lower teeth. Do not spend more than 2 minutes, or about 30 seconds per quadrant, brushing your teeth.Hold the bristles at a 45-degree angle toward your gum line.
